Ice Sticks




2nd January 2010



Still eight inches of snow but made it albeit very carefully to the stationers and back. A few cars off the road and stuck in the dyke back. A bit slippy!

I stopped a while to watch some young kids having great fun sledging in the park being pulled along by their parents. Freezing cold and soaking wet but smiling and happy.

The main roads in the town are clear of snow but the footpaths are treacherous. Why is it that so much effort is taken to clear roads for people driving cars (which have engines) and we pedestrians are left to slip and slide around uncontrollably on footpaths layered with two inches of ice?

Turkey soup for lunch, turkey curry for tea, mince pies in the dog...
